Verified Purchase:Yes
I've been interested in Astronomy for awhile, but only had a very cheap telescope. I decided that I wanted to step up to a more serious scope with GoTo capability, but didn't want to spend a fortune. This scope was the perfect fit. Its super easy to get it aligned and you'll be "slewing" to planets and nebula in no time. No problems making out the cloud bands on Jupiter or viewing the Orion Nebula. Fantastic views of the moon as well. Only complaint was that at this price, they really should include an AC Adapter (I knew it didn't have it going in). It will chew through batteries like no ones business, so make sure to get the adapter if you plan on using it for an extended amount of time.
What's great about it: Ease of use, great viewing
What's not so great: Doesn't come with AC Adapter
I would recommend this to a friend!

How Often Used:3-5 times a week
I was apprehensive about spending $100 on a set of earbuds, but read so many positive reviews not only about the sound, but the comfort I decided to give them a shot. I am very glad I did. Regular earbuds always either fall out of my ear, or start to hurt after 20-30 minutes. I've worn these for hours at a time and after a few minutes you don't even feel them at all anymore. No more sore ears/etc. The sound these put out is simply amazing as well. For tiny little earbuds, there is a surprising amount of bass, however it does not overpower the rest of the spectrum. Everything is nicely balanced. The sound is just as good as some over ear headphones that I have except these are MUCH more portable. If you are on the fence about them, trust me, you will NOT be disappointed.
What's great about it: Sound Quality and Comfort
What's not so great: Nothing
